Summary

1. Create a project via New project > Import Project > Repository by URL

2. Git repository URL field, allows entering the repository with the format https://gitlab.com/group/project.git

3. Also, selecting Mirror repository is available.

When completing further steps and creating a new project, Mirroring options will disappear.

The documentation Configure pull mirroring mentions that USERNAME is required in the Git repository URL, like https://MYUSERNAME@github.com/GROUPNAME/PROJECTNAME.git

What is the expected correct behavior?

Grey out Mirror repository option if the URL doesn't contain USERNAME and add an alert stating that Mirroring requires that part
